The &ldquo;Pass Down&rdquo; is an interactive installation developed for 2009 HAKKA EXPO in Taiwan that introduces prominent Hakkanese to the audience. The &ldquo;Pass Down&rdquo; means to invoke the passing down of the Hakka spirits to the descendents. To embodied such cultural meaning into interaction behaviors, we design virtual firing spot that project onto user&#039;s hands and use the camera tracking techniques to let the firing spot follow user&rsquo;s hands. The users are encouraged to &ldquo;take&rdquo; the virtual firing spot to the virtual candleholder, and this will evoke the textual introduction for different prominent Hakkanese.
